Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I chose the Expo brand because it has a reputation for quality and I have had success and longevity with their products in the past. To my great disappointment, these markers exhibited the signature Expo quality and vibrancy for the first 5 words I wrote, and then, one by one, they grew fainter and are now virtually transparent on my white board. The caps were on tightly, so there shouldn't be a reason for their poor performance other than a faulty or perhaps very old product. The pink, burgundy, and red are now virtually indistinguishable from each other, and nearly all the other colors are so faint they are barely visible. Of the entire 12-pack, only the brown marker still works... This could just be a bad set, but $7.99 is a lot of money to spend for markers that die after a few moments of use.Unless the company can offer a quality replacement product, I would not recommend these markers to anyone, and I would greatly appreciate hearing from the company to know why their product was so poor and whether they will make amends. I'm hoping their customer service is better than their product!
